Cider Sunday: Txotx!

Since we're calling out cool cider events, let me offer a hearty Txotx! A week from today, on May 4, Bar Vivant on East Burnside is hosting an authentic, honest-to-goodness txotx feast. In the Spanish Basque country, Txotx (pronounced "choach" and rhymes with coach) is the celebratory feast that accompanies the ripening of local cider. I had the great pleasure to visit Gipuzkoa in January and wrote about Txotx here. For one day only, you'll get to sample the feast here in PDX:

Here's the menu, which is spot-on what you'd find in a cider house in Astigarraga.
